Very pleased with the KA-8E. It arrived in perfect condition and the gloss mahogany finish looks great. Very good action for an 8 string and it has a nice bright tone. Experienced the usual tuning problems for the first few days until the strings stretched out but that's to be expected with nylon strings.
This give a fuller sound when playing with a group. Easy to solo.
This is my 3rd Kala Brand instrument. Love all 3. Like the others, this one is well-built and has an incredible sound. Picked up the tweed hardshell case to go with it. Great combo. Have been enjoying playing the 8-string since it arrived. Have been happy with all my purchases from Kala. Will likely be buying more in the future.😊👍
